That's right up there with the Google Search of "Waitress Sandwich".

If I hear “lion of the senate” or “America’s Royal Dynasty” in reference to the Kennedys coming from the MSM, I am going to puke.

Today should be Mary Jo’s day.

Let’s offer prayers for Kennedy’s murder victims including the unborn.

I heard some big wig lauding TK as a person who never thought of himself first. What would MJK say about that?

Most mush-brain Liberal yutes probably never heard of Mary Jo. Glad the word is out.

Hope Google provides a excellent storyline for them.

Ted outlived Mary Joy by just a shade over 40 years.

If she had died quickly from the crash he probably would have been elected Prez in spite of driving off the bridge. But the drawing done by the rescue diver showing her awaiting rescue while breathing in the air pocket of the foot well of the car spelled a greater political doom.

"Link only, per FR copyright and excerpt rules"

How do FR "copyright and excerpt rules" differ from those of the general population? I thought fair-use was fair-use in any local in the USA.

Here is a perfectly acceptable quote:

"More than 40 years after her death, the name Mary Jo Kopechne has skyrocketed to the top of Web searches today on the news of the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy."

: : : S N I P : : :

"The search term 'mary jo kopechne' was the top item on Google Trends just after 1 p.m. today, a metric for Web searches that are the fastest rising. The search engine has given the search term a ranking of 'on fire.'"

Then you could even give in text props:

My Google search of “Mary Jo Kopechne” was halted by Google...I had to type the letters that appeared on the screen to prove I was human and not some robotic spam engine.

Oops. Sorry. So then, if you knew the Detroit Free Press was a banned site, why did you even reference them? Don’t you just drive traffic (read: dollars) to their site?
